The Movie


Jason Scott Lee and Lauren Holly star in this unforgettable glimpse into the life, love and the unconquerable spirit of the legendary Bruce Lee. From a childhood of rigorous martial arts training, Lee realizes his dream of opening his own kung-fu school in America. Before long, he is discovered by a Hollywood producer (Robert Wagner) and begins a meteoric rise to fame and an all-too-short reign as one of the most charismatic action heroes in motion picture history.

Hailed as "an immeasurably entertaining movie" by CBS-TV, Dragon is ablaze with comedy, touching romance, and spectacular martial arts sequences.

"Dragon definitely Delivers! It's a mixture of mysticism, romance and spectacular fight scenes. Jason Scott Lee gives a striking performance." --Playboy Magazine.

My Thoughts Movie Ratings

A good movie combined with some good features on this special collector's edition DVD make this a great buy for any Bruce Lee fan.  I personally have never really liked Bruce Lee or his movies, but the story of his life do make for a good film, and I don't think that it could of been better than Dragon.  Jason Scott Lee puts in the best performance of his career as Bruce Lee.
